an interrupt appears to occur before the transfer has been marked
as completed. This caused umass transfers to get stuck, especially
when writing large files. The workaround sets up a timer that
rechecks for missed completed transfers if some operations are still
pending. Other suggested workarounds, such as performing a PCI read
immediately after acknowledging the interrupts, do not appear to
help.

This allows the creation of 1 or more threads that will service a single
taskqueue. Also rework the taskqueue_create() API to remove the API change
that was introduced a while back. Creating a taskqueue doesn't rely on
the presence of a process structure, and the proc mechanics are much better
encapsulated in taskqueue_start_threads(). Also clean up the
taskqueue_terminate() and taskqueue_free() functions to safely drain
pending tasks and remove all associated threads.
The TASKQUEUE_DEFINE and TASKQUEUE_DEFINE_THREAD macros have been changed
to use the new API, but drivers compiled against the old definitions will
still work. Thus, recompiling drivers is not a strict requirement.

The at_rate do not give the actual rate but is used to compute the

write an estimation of the actual rate using at_rate cmd and then

- Only update the rx ring consumer pointer after running through the rx loop,
not with each iteration through the loop.
- If possible, use a fast interupt handler instead of an ithread handler. Use
the interrupt handler to check and squelch the interrupt, then schedule a
taskqueue to do the actual work. This has three benefits:
- Eliminates the 'interrupt aliasing' problem found in many chipsets by
allowing the driver to mask the interrupt in the NIC instead of the
OS masking the interrupt in the APIC.
- Allows the driver to control the amount of work done in the interrupt
handler. This results in what I call 'adaptive polling', where you get
the latency benefits of a quick response to interrupts with the
interrupt mitigation and work partitioning of polling. Polling is still
an option in the driver, but I consider it orthogonal to this work.
- Don't hold the driver lock in the RX handler. The handler and all data
associated is effectively serialized already. This eliminates the cost of
dropping and reaquiring the lock for every receieved packet. The result
is much lower contention for the driver lock, resulting in lower CPU usage
and lower latency for interactive workloads.
The amount of work done in the taskqueue is controlled by the sysctl
dev.em.N.rx_processing_limit
and tunable
hw.em.rx_process_limit
Setting these to -1 effectively removes the limit.
The fast interrupt and taskqueue can be disabled by defining NO_EM_FASTINTR.
This work has been shown to increase fast-forwarding from ~570 kpps to
~750 kpps (note that the same NIC hardware seems unable to transmit more than
800 kpps, so this increase appears to be limited almost solely by the
hardware). Gains have been shown in other workloads, ranging from better
performance to elimination of over-saturation livelocks.

- Decrease TI_MAXTXSEGS to 32 from 128. It seems that most mbuf chain
length is less than 32 and it would be re-packed with m_defrag(9) if
its chain length is larger than TI_MAXTXSEGS. This would protect ti(4)
against possible kernel stack overflow when txsegs[] is put on stack.
Alternatively, we can embed the txsegs[] into softc. However, that
would waste memory and make Tx/Rx speration hard when we want to
sperate Tx/Rx handlers to optimize locking.
- Fix dma map tracking used in Tx path. Previously it used the dma map
of the last mbuf chain in ti_txeof() which was incorrect as ti(4)
used dma map of the first mbuf chain when it loads a mbuf chain with
bus_dmamap_load_mbuf(9). Correct the bug by introducing queues that
keep track of active/inactive dma maps/mbuf chain.
- Use ti_txcnt to check whether driver need to set watchdog timer instead
of blidnly clearing the timer in ti_txeof().
- Remove the 3rd arg. of ti_encap(). Since ti(4) now caches the last
descriptor index(ti_tx_saved_prodidx) used in Tx there is no need to
pass it as a fuction arg.
- Change data type of producer/consumer index to int from u_int16_t in
order to remove implicit type conversions in Tx/Rx handlers.
- Check interface queue before getting a mbuf chain to reduce locking
overhead.
- Check number of available Tx descriptores to be 16 or higher in
ti_start(). This wouldn't protect Tx descriptor shortage but it would
reduce number of bus_dmamap_unload(9) calls in ti_encap() when we are
about to running out of Tx descriptors.
- Command NIC to send packets ony when the driver really has packets
enqueued. Previously it always set TI_MB_SENDPROD_IDX which would
command NIC to DMA Tx descriptors into NIC local memory regardless
of Tx descriptor changes.

cardbus_cis.c to this file, some code was not merged and thus resource
list entries were invalid. They didn't have a resources attached to
them.
However, the problem was masked for some time later, because newer
resources list entries were added to the head of the list, and
resource_list_find() always returned the first matching resource list
entry. Usually the underlying driver allocated a valid resource and
added it to the head of the list, and invalid one wasn't used.
In rev. 1.174 of subr_bus.c the sorting of resource list entries was
reversed demasking the problem in cardbus_alloc_resources().
This commit fixes the problem returning back some code from
